About the Book

At the beseeching of Nour, Queen of the Elves, Erikk of Giehad embarks on a quest to rescue the Princess Isneha. Her kidnapping by forces unknown threatens to destroy their world and plunge the Middle Kingdoms into chaos. However, as Erikk soon learns, nothing is at it seems as he, the Princess Isneha, and Jalwa the Golden dragon are plunged into an epic conflict with powerful forces that grow more ominous by the day. Our heroes learn much as they race to save their world in a deadly showdown that pulls all they know of love, trust and honour into question...

The book has been wonderfully illustrated with four full-colour illustrations that are sure to capture the reader's imagination as they embark on this quest with Erikk, Jalwa and Isneha.
